Great, thanks for sharing!

Do you find the new subdivisions manually as well? Just a point of clarification regarding my conflation plugin [0]; currently it is geared towards finding 1-to-1 correspondences, such as matching GNIS nodes to areas. It does not handle N-to-M correspondences like you'll have with roads, and it doesn't take care of topology issues. However there is another user working on a TIGER conflation plugin which should handle these things, but I'm not sure how far he is from having something usable. That being said, I am sorely in need of getting feedback on the design of my conflation plugin. :) -Josh [0]: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/JOSM/Plugins/Conflation _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
